Local artists, engaged in creating fine art in Santa Fe County, open their studios annually on the last two weekends in June for the Santa Fe Studio Tour. Open to the public, a free event, this is an unique opportunity for the public to see the artists’ latest work and their working environments. Many artists will be demonstrating their techniques and all will have art for sale. Santa Fe Studio Tour officials describe the Tour as a “dynamic yet intimate total immersion in art where visitors can talk with the artists, experience their working environments and purchase art, all while enjoying the landscape of New Mexico, touring from one studio to the next!” Also explore Santa Fe’s art museums, galleries, and famous Canyon Road!

Imagine a place where cultures from all corners of the globe are celebrated; where folk artists, often marginalized in their own communities, are elevated. Where the humanity of the handmade isn’t just discussed, but is right in front of you as you move from stall to stall at a bustling outdoor event, taking in the shades, symbols, and smiles of nearly 60 countries gathered in one place.

Every July this experience is made real when the International Folk Art Market | Santa Fe — a mecca for master folk artists and catalyst for social change across continents — unfurls its magic.
